Ok so Jeep and Fiat obviously do not have the best brand image when it comes to quality. This perception should not be applied to this vehicle. Nothing to me comes across as cheap or low quality. Just remember that you will be dealing with Jeep service department. I haven't heard the best about Jeep service, but every brand has good and bad dealerships. Just do your research before you get it serviced. see full Jeep Cherokee review

With all of the recalls GMs image is shot in my mind. Especially coupled wih thier delay in issuing the recalls as well as the fact that the reason I no-longer own this car is because it caught fire going down the road and completely burned up. see full Saturn ION review
